Default OT: 91' Astrovan, ABS brake bleeding ? Warning lights wont' go out ?

OK,

On my New (old) 91' Astro, we changed all the brake lines from the ABS and down to the wheels, and also the brake hoses.

Then we changed the brake oil and, bleed the brakes, as on my 944, and i tested the car's breaking today, its really good, but the Brake and that ABS warning light's will not turn off again. (it was off before the brke line change).

Is there some trick to bleed the ABS system, or is there a reset procedure or something.

? ? Anyone out there with a Astro repair manual who can look it up.

Please.

The abs light can only be cleared two ways. 1 is with a scantool, the other is to jumper two terminals in the ALDL connector I think it is A & H. The terminals are counted starting on the right of the top row and from the left of the bottom row. cross them with the key on listen for the abs motor to run uncross them and then do it 2 more times. that should clear it if there are no problems
